not rustle up enough money to

GRANT VS. LAKE COUNTY.
In the Grant vs Lake county
case the judgment of the su

county for .f'l,2fJ.S.S2, but no in
terest or costs except the fees of
the clerk of the supreme court,
which are taxed against Lake
county. A portion of the sylla
bus is as follows:
For the purposes for which a
county is made a body corporate
and politic, it is a person, and is
capable of suing and being sued
! in regard to matters pertaining
I to those nurnoses. the same as an
individual.
Held, further, that the fact
that the indebtedness of the coun
ty of Grant at the time of the
passage of the said act, exceeded
the sum of five thousand dollars,
did not support a finding of a
conclusion of law, that the part
of the indebtedness in excess of
that sum was illegal and void;
that the clause in the constitu
tion of the state which provides
"that no county shall create any
debts or liabilities which shall.
singly or in the aggregate, exceed
the sum of five thousand dollars
etc.," does not imply that all
debts and liabilities against a
count v over and above said sum
are necessarilly obnoxious to said
provision; that the provision on
ly applies to debts and liabilities
beyond said sum which a county
in its corporate character and as
an artificial person, voluntarily
creates.
Held, also, that interest should
not be allowed upon a claim
against a count)', until a warrant
therefor has been pr .-ented to
the treasurer thereof and an en
dorsement made thereon. "Not
paid for want of funds," and the
date of such presentment over

It is low grade ore, assaying

in quality makes up in quantity.
It is an immense mountain of
ore, so to speak, being over one

containing large quantities of

so it is easily reached without

NEW USES FOR ELECTRICITY.
Cars to be Transported 2440 Mileg a

to machinery, as mentioned
above, is not all the uses to
which it can be applied. It cures
most obstinate chronic diseases

remedy with wonderful success,
